@tbeckett@GuerillaOntologist a few years ago, the UK's Alex Bird of consultancy.coop proposed 3 additional coop principles, one of which was a max pay ratio of 1:7. At the time I was shocked by what I perceived to be the lack of ambition towards equal pay... Now, disappointingly, I understand the extent of the capitalist compromise.

@nicksellen hey there, i'm sure Cornerstoners will be happy to have you again, I'll email them to check. There's a bunch of interesting infrastructural food stuff in Leeds, and you might want to hook up with @Graham_Mitchell who's a bit further to the west of West Yorks. Thanks @douginamug for drawing my attention 🙂

@mattcropp loving the local food networks in #BTV, esp Diggers Mirth collective farm and lovely Ms Wienerz revolutionary doughnuts. Pls pass on hugs to #Minneapolis#coops - i esp recommend Hard Times cafe, Equal Exchange and Shared Capital - if you can, get a copy of the history of the North Country Coop - an eye-opening account of the Coop Wars in the Twin Cities & much food for thought. http://www.radicalrootsfilm.com

social.coop is a coop-run corner of the fediverse, a cooperative and transparent approach to operating a social platform.
We are currently closed to new memberships while we improve our internal processes and policies, and plan to re-open to new folks when that work is complete. [9/2/2018]
